The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar"). - ↑ The Unmercenary Saints Cosmas and Damian of Rome should not be confused with the Unmercenary Saints Cosmas and Damian of Asia Minor (November 1), or the Unmercenary Saints Cosmas and Damian of Arabia (October 17).[2]

- ↑ According to his notice in the Synaxarion of Constantinople, Peter was the son of the patrikios and strategos Constantine, and was born during the reign of Irene and Constantine VI (780-796). He also became a patrikios and domestikos ton scholon; the emperor Nikephoros I (802-811) appointed him domestikos ton Hikanaton. He was taken prisoner after the Byzantine defeat by the Bulgarians in 811, but escaped with the supernatural aid of John the Theologian. He retired from military life and took the monastic habit on Mt. Olympos as a disciple of Ioannikios the Great. After 34 years of ascetic life (i.e., c. 845) he returned to Constantinople and resided in a hut near the church he built in the Evandrou quarter. He died eight years later, c. 853.[10]
